Converting "D" drawing to "C" drawing

[mdilday]

I created a drawing on a "D" size template using some of the electrical symbols in the resource browser. I grouped the drawing and then copied the drawing. Next I opened a "C" size drawing and pasted the drawing into the C size drawing. The drawing was largerd than the template area so I selected the drawing and attempted to scale the drawing to fit into the "C" size template. I noticed that the symbols that I inserted were not scaled with the remainder of the drawing scale. Next I tried to scale the entire drawing without and result?

You need to reset the Page>Layer scale if you want the symbols to scale properly. Rescale Objects globally will not affect symbols one bit 'cus they be symbols, mon.

Not sure on how this works but I tried to adjust the lauer scale of the "D" size drawing and the copy and paste into the "C" size drawing with no solution. Am I doing this correctly?

Thanks mon.

Why not use the worksheet to create your C size drawing. If you want it on a seperate file then workgroup ref. it.
